I Am Not a Device

Stop key-stroking me! I need voices, faces and real company. People gave up warmth and speech. A psychological and emotional breach. This began way before Covid! We make only key strokes, hardly the sweet sound of katydids. Call people...they do die, you know? And are gone forever, melted, disappeared, as winter's snow, 1-4-2021 2:45pm PST

Personally, tbe toll on me is devastating. I know for others as well. Thy to get someone to call you, NO. They don't even answer a simple email. Or in the states...they have answering machines and never call back. People are as cold and uncaring asthe government....love, Pangie xx
